Honey Hive FarmsBee Feeder | Feed Your Honey Bees in Cold Weather | Works with Standard Mason Jar

Please for anyone's information about bees...do not use the lid that comes with this feeder! The holes have been punched inward creating very sharp edges on the inner lid and from what I've read the bees, when drinking the syrup can get their proboscis (straw like tongue) caught up on the sharp edges and die. On Amazon look for "The Bee Bar Cap", $10.95, (sold from Mann Lake). Is compatible with this entrance feeder!Long live the bees!

It works very well

Very nice. The wood is unfinished, so I applied an oil to it. In spite of a sung fit, I'm able to lift the jar out (straight up, no struggle) and refill it. The bees don't seem to mind - I don't bother with protective gear when re-filling. My one complaint is that the part that inserts into the box is too thin, causing me to have to shim it up, and I also had to add a block of wood between this and the landing board to keep it horizontal. It would be nicer if it included a customizable bit of wood designed for facilitating a universal fit. (Mine is a flow hive).

Great for free standing feeding. I do not have my own hive yet. Last year before there was wild food for the bees in my neighborhood they were visiting my hummingbird feeder. I didn't have something to feed them so I found this item on Amazon. This works fantastic. I have a larg amount of bees visiting to feed. I use a liquid that I buy at a local farm supply. I use a pint and a quart small mouth jar to feed the liquid syrup to my bees. Awesome to watch them.

I bought this because the top was metal and I figured it would last exposed to the elements. I have one made from plastic that was cheaper but was concerned about uv break down. To make this product last you will need to paint the sides and ends with a latex paint. It is wider at the opening to allow for more bees feeding at once. For that reason I gave it 4 stars... not superior quality.

The first one I received was a mess, seller made good and exchanged it for me quickly. The second one was perfect and my bees are happy

Front Hive feeder is one of the simplest but best ways to feed your honey beesThis product lives up to its value and quality

I ordered 3 of these and have no complaints. They are constructed well and fit into the hive opening perfectly.
